As autumn approaches, high street favourite New Look has launched a Tan Faux Suede Belted Trench Coat that is already generating buzz online. Priced at just £45, the coat is being tipped as the season's must-have outerwear piece, with fashion writer Bethan describing it as an item that 'immediately elevates any outfit'.
The coat has garnered an enthusiastic response on social media, with Instagram users commenting 'Oh I love this jacket' and 'haven't taken mine off'. Its affordable price tag and chic silhouette are likely driving its popularity, especially as suede makes a major revival in 2025, blending boho chic with quiet luxury.
Compared to similar offerings from other retailers, New Look's version is significantly cheaper. Monsoon's Tove Suedette Trench Coat retails at £130, while ASOS sells a faux suede trench for £85. New Look's coat also offers a wider size range, from 6 to 22, and is available in tan and dark chocolate brown.
The trench coat features classic design elements including a double-breasted fastening, revere collar, storm flap, and a sash-tie belt to cinch the waist. Made from soft, lightweight faux suede, it is machine washable and suitable for cooler summer days or layering over knits in autumn. It includes two side pockets and has a roomy, oversized fit with relaxed drop shoulders.
While not a heavy winter coat, it provides a structured yet comfortable silhouette. One early reviewer called it a 'gorgeous coat', adding it is 'well made and looks amazing'. For £45, it offers an affordable entry point into the suede trend while remaining timeless enough for repeated wear.
